If you're anything like Taylor Swift, who we guess struggles with taking one entire picture of all her adoring fans according to her latest commercial, or at least like taking panoramic pictures of your travels, Sony has unveiled a new technology in their latest camera, the Sony Cyber-Shot TX7, which we assume they are going to be incorporating in all of their newer Cyber-Shot cameras.
With the ability to take a single 258 degree panoramic picture (for you a little rusty with geometry, 360 degrees would be a full circle) by simply pressing the shutter button and sweeping the camera, this new technology only available from Sony promises to be the solution for the age-old problem of getting that entire view in front of you without having to take 3 to 4 separate pictures and then pasting them together in Photoshop, or Scotch tape for you old school photo bugs.
See what we mean as Taylor Swift manages to capture all of her screaming fans in one shot:
We just wonder what Kanye has to say on the matter.
If you're interested in learning more about the iSweep technology, or buying a camera that has it, right now it's only being offered on the Sony Cyber-shot TX7 (but we assume all future Cyber-shots as well). You can read more and buy one from Amazon.com for $379.

HA HA - this commercial is hilarious. But this is definitely a cool new feature. I'm just wondering if I want to print it out, how will that work? Is Sony going to start offering panoramic printing solutions too?

Does anyone have any feedback on how easy it is to use the iSweep feature? Is it as easy as the commercial shows?
